Re: [Wikimediauk-l] Virtual meetups

A semi-permanent hangout is a poor match for Zoom — it would make a great
target for Zoombombers.

That kind of space would be better suited to IRC or Slack, generally, no?

It might be nice to have a permanent-ish "hangout" chat. Some of us get to
leave the house for work but I imagine for a lot of people it's rather dull
at home!
